Youth Services CIC

Stepping in early. Changing what happens next.

We are an intervention-led youth service working directly with children and young people. We step in early, reset direction and support young people back into education, family and community life.

Our intervention model

Prevention. Reset. Reintegration.

Everything we do follows one model. It meets young people wherever they are, from the earliest warning signs to getting back on track.

Prevention

Stepping in early, before concerns escalate.

We work with young people when the first signs appear: a change in behaviour, a drop in attendance, emotional difficulties or early exposure to risk. Early intervention builds awareness, resilience and the confidence to make safer choices.

Reset

Interrupting the pattern and changing direction.

When things have already gone off track, we deliver focused intervention to understand what is driving the situation and to put new ways of thinking, reacting and coping in its place.

Reintegration

Supporting the return to education, family and community.

We support young people back into school, positive activities and relationships, working with families and professionals so that progress continues after our intervention ends.

What we work on

Direct work on the issues that hold young people back

We work with children and young people facing a range of challenges, often more than one at a time.

Mental health & emotional wellbeing

Anxiety, low mood, anger, self-esteem and emotional regulation, worked through directly with the young person.

Behaviour

Understanding what sits behind behaviour and building new patterns that hold up at home, in school and in the community.

Trauma

Trauma-informed intervention for young people whose experiences are shaping how they feel, react and connect.

Safeguarding

Direct work with young people where there are safeguarding concerns, alongside the professionals already involved.

Exploitation

Early intervention around criminal and sexual exploitation: recognising risk, understanding grooming and making safer choices.

School exclusion & disengagement

For young people at risk of exclusion, excluded, or no longer engaging, with a clear route back into education.

SEND

Intervention adapted to the needs of young people with special educational needs and disabilities.

Other vulnerabilities

Young people facing other challenges or risks that are affecting their wellbeing, safety or future.
